tainly give you something
new to think about.
Wlmi could lie better
than sewing lr s die favor-
ite hobby of millions 0f
American women By sew
lug rot yourself und your
family you can always
make suitable and flatter-
Ing styles In other words
you cun have Just what
you want And you 'll be
able to do It within your
budget which Is certainly
an important factor in
these times.
Patterns have been sim-
plltled to such an extent that any-
one can now maku u professional
looking outfit If the instructions on
the guide sheet are followed you
can expect perfect results — and
you will achieve them . too. You

you realize nil the simplifications
worked out In commercial patterns
You 'll work along smoothly and
quickly and achieve your goal to
your complete satisfaction.
Making household articles—both
large and small—18 another hobby

Chevrolet to Display
New Car January 22
A year ago a veteran of World
War II , und a veteran of two
Foreign wars, decided there should
I be houses available for veterans
I and for others who needed houses
ut a lower price than anything be-
ing offered to the public. At the
same time the American Legion
had purchased the old U.S.O. build-
ing which had more land with It
than they could use, land which at
one time belonged to the Town ,
us a gilt from Frank P. Hullett.
The younger mun was Robert M.
Johnson, a former Major of the
Air Corp, who had turned builder
after the wur and built u group of
cottages at Hurwlchport. The older
man was Major Samuel T. Stewart,
well known us a Cape Cod Realtor.
As a result of the eombinutlon of
circumstances, Mr. Johnson finally
pun-bused eight acres of the land
which is between Barnstable Road,
lyanough Road, Spring Street and
the American Legion property, and
a mi nub ugo sturted to build. He
has bought materials by the car-
loud und is building four houses
at a time, thus saving in price ,
materials and labor; and is offer-
ing them with the statement that
they ure of tlie very best material
on the market. Ifl. Joslin Whitney,
a local architect, wus retained us
architect. Tlie lots average XOxlOO ,
giving plenty of room for a garden
und garage. The basic houses huve
two bedrooms , living room , kitchen
and bath , full concrete cellar with
oil burning hot air heat leading
to each room. The floors are of oak.
Suitable mortgages have been
arranged , and the past week live
houses have been sold , or the
building of them arranged for. Mr.
Johnson has stated that there is a
set price on the basic house. Any-
one, wishing additional space or
service, at a low cost , can arrange
for It by purchasing now. Gener-
ous mortguge arrangements have
been made.
Major Stewart has been appoint-
ed General Sales Agent , and stateB
that he will be glad to take any
prospective buyer over the proper-
ty and has invited the prospective
buyers to bring anyone with them
in whose judgment they have con-
fidence. He says that he feels that
his statement of a year ago is ju sti-
fied; namely, that "It can be done"
and a low priced house can be
built that is of a quality to match
the old houses of the Cape.
"It Can Be Done"
A High Muss of Requiem wus
sung yesterday at St Kriinels Xuv-
let- Church , Ilyanuis , Tor Miss
Catherine Murphy, who died on
Monday, Jan; L0, at ber noma in

THE TREE OF LIFE
An old proverb of tho Philippines
says: "He who plants u coconut
troe plants vessels and clothin g .
food and drink , a habitation for
himself mill a heritage for bin chil-
dren. " This Is literally truo , for
long before Western clvllitutlou
discovered Its multiple uses, na-
tives of tlie tropical belt through-
out the world considered tho coco-
nut palm their most versatile und
prised possession.
And well they might for tho nut
meat und the milk are food und
drink; the trunk of the troe fur-
iiiHlies ' U beautiful und durable
wood with which tlie Filipino may
build bin home. Tho leaf-stalk
makes the ratters; thatched leaven ,
u picturesque root The coir, or
outer husk or the coconut , fur-
nishes liber for matting to cover
tlie Boor, und to make clothing,
oordage, and iiHhing lines. Souse-
hold utensils are made from the
nut shells.
From the ribs or the leaven of
tin ' coconut palm, baskets und funs
uru fashioned, botb for native URU
und for export, llrooms und brushoe
come from the same source. The
ripe nuts provide coconut oil which
may bo used ror frying other food s,
and for the manufacture or soup
und candles. lOveu the terminal bud
of ovory true cut down may be
cooked und eaten. It Is considered
a purtlciilurly delicate and de-
lirious vegetable , and from it
